South Lake Tahoe Local Government Affairs Committee

South Lake Tahoe Local Government Affairs Committee

Regional Transportation Funding Initiative

The Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA) in coordination with the Tahoe Transportation District (TTD) have been pursuing concepts for regional transportation funding for transit and infrastructure projects in the Tahoe basin. At the TRPA Environmental Improvement, Transportation, & Public Outreach Committee meeting on 2/24/21, the committee members discussed equity in the cost burden and queries about broad definitions such as “locals”, “commuter”, and “low-income”.

TTD previously brought forward a “ONE Tahoe” proposal which proposed federal and state funding, increase in taxes, and “basin entry fees” to be paid by users. Entry fees were calculated per vehicle with passenger cars starting at $4.10, which could be collected via a FastPass system or toll booth. Varying fees were calculated based on size of vehicle (commercial) and type of user (resident vs. visitor). The proposal was met with mixed response from varying jurisdictions and stakeholders in the Tahoe basin.

The updated regional approach to implement public transit and collect funding includes outreach to other jurisdictions that lie outside of the Tahoe watershed include Carson City, Reno, Truckee, western slope of El Dorado County municipalities, and Sacramento. According to the TTD, more than $1.2B will be required to create and operate the planned infrastructure.

Staff is currently refining their new proposal, and The Regional Transportation Plan will go before the TRPA Governing Board for approval in the next few months.
